At least with a proper camera I'll only have myself to blame. Don't worry, quality of camera has never been an impediment to anyone blaming their gear. I just saw a new photo book published by a friend of mine.

I have taken a lot of photos with my phone, and even posted some of them on my Best of 2010 page: http://www.web-options.com/Pick2010/. Nine of these were taken with my phone. I also have a page of photos taken around where I work, all done with the phone: http://www.web-options.com/EC1/ Phones can make good photos, but like all cameras there are things they can't do, and that means they impose a certain style of photography, often rather static, which has an interesting randomness do it resulting from the shutter delay, and an agreeably poor quality like a Holga or similar. What you can't do, at least not with mine, is Images A La Sauvette, to quote a phrase, with any real predictability. The case in point is the shot I showed which took this thread off its original course - I'd have nailed that with a better camera. I could have done any of the phone pictures with, for instance, my M8, but there is only a very small subset of my M8 pictures that I could have taken with the phone. That's the difference a good camera makes. The difference something like the X100 will make over something like the M8 is that I will be happy to stick it in my saddle bag every day to take to from work, and occasionally leave it overnight in my locker.
